Pershing Society Organized Here A University unit of the.Na tional Society of Pershing Rifles is now being organized and should have its charter soon. Junior Oli-. ver Huff, executive officer of the newly-formed group, made this announcement last week. According to Huff ,the unit is: waiting for an o.k. from national and regimental headquarters. Huff added that the charter should come “in the very near fu- j ture.” The University organization will be known as Company G and is open to basic ROTC students rather than advanced course ca dets. Huff said that it would be similar to Scabbard and Blade, the advanced cadet honorary. Twenty-eight basic ROTC ca dets are pledging. Huff said. Elig ible are freshmen with a 3.0 ac cumulative grade point average who have an A in ROTC, and so phomores with a 2.5 and at least a B over-all ROTC average. An initiation date for new members hasn’t been named yet. Huff said. It will probably take place as soon as the regimental commander comes down from 11th regimental headquarters at Oregon State college. The unit held an organizational meeting last Thursday. Huff said that the group would meet again Thursday, when Lt. Col. R. D. Evens, profeasor of military sci ence and tactics, will give a tajk. Lt. A. T. Smith is advisor to the group. The company will drill toge ther, separate from the regiment and drill team. Huff said. They will have one meeting per week, plus drill. Members are to receive, upon qualification, service stripes, chevrons, and special national awards.

A Campus-to-Career Case History *4 Cliff Downer (right/, -f Jt. in Mathematics, '41, M.S. in Citil Engineering, ’.SO, Harvard, on the site oi it building construction project. “Projects you can sink your teeth into” Clifford J. Downer started his tele phone career in the building engineering department of The Southern .New Eng land Telephone Company. At present he is working w ith the Bell System’s manu facturing unit. Western Electric, helping to build facilities for housing a Conti nental Air Defense project. His assign ment: a key liaison job in supervising a subcontractor’s work on a several million dollar Construction operation. ‘'One of the most interesting features of my present job." says Cliff, “is making decisions on the spot. For example, draw - ings showed where bedrock for footings would be reached. Excavations revealed a poor grade of rock. How much further down do we go? A hundred workers and tons of equipment are waiting for the decision. ‘There’s a lot of future for a civil en gineer in the telephone business. New and j smaller types of telephone equipment will ■ probably change our ideas about how telephone buildings should be built. It’s s fascinating work, all right. And broaden- l ing. too, because it's leading me to other i engineering fields. ‘‘It looks to me as if there are real ; challenges ahead — projects you can sink ; your teeth into. Besides, I’m convinced > the telephone business recognizes and s regards personal industriousness and » drive.” ! ■ Interesting career opportunities of all kinds are | also offered l»y other Bell Telephone Companies j and Western Electric Company, Bell Telephone * Laboratories and Sandia Corporation.
